Luminescent properties of lanthanide dibenzoylmethide triethylammonium compounds

AbstractTriboluminescence (TL) is defined as the emission of cold light based on mechanical action. In 1999, Sage and Geddes used this property to design a sensor capable of discerning the location of impacts. By coating a structure with various triboluminescent materials, impacts to structures could be monitored with simple light detectors. However, the intensity of […]
